The San Antonio Spurs will pick second and 14th in the 2025 NBA Draft, and Kevin Durant being traded to the Houston Rockets should have some effect on their strategy.

The San Antonio Spurs were Durant's No. 1 preferred landing spot. The NBA legend wanted to play with Victor Wembanyama and De'Aaron Fox, two of the top players in the league. However, according to John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7, the Spurs never made an offer to the Suns for Durant.

The Spurs were reportedly not among the teams that engaged in serious talks to acquire Kevin Durant, according to @ShamsCharania. San Antonio will likely preserve assets to pursue roster upgrades that better fit the timeline of Victor Wembanyama and its young core down the road.
